A 27-year-old Russian woman stopped cutting her hair for 14 years and now she looks like Rapunzel

Daria Gubanova/Instagram The INSIDER Summary:

Daria Gubanova, a 27-year-old Russian woman, stopped cutting her hair for 14 years.

Gubanova stopped cutting her hair after a friend bet her she couldn't grow her hair long enough to braid it.

Her hair now falls as low as her ankles.

In order to avoid spilt ends, breakage, and a ratty nest of tangles, hairstylists (and Allure editors!) will tell you to regularly book an appointment with your salon for a maintenance trim every three (or so) months. Of course, this is just a standard practice — and not the rule — put in place to help keep hair healthy, so not everyone will abide by it. Case in point: Daria Gubanova, a 27-year-old Russian woman who stopped cutting her hair for — wait for it — 14 years.

According to the " Mirror," Gubanova said goodbye to routine haircuts a decade-and-a-half ago after "a friend bet her that she could not grow her hair long enough to braid it." Now, her golden blonde Rapunzel-like hair falls as low as her ankles (see photo evidence below!).

Gubanova's hair is so long, luscious, and 'gram-worthy that, over the years, she's raked up an insane amount of fans on Instagram because of it. (She has 219,000 followers, FYI.) In almost every snapshot on her feed, Gubanova shows off her several-feet-long style, and, as if on command, comments, compliments, and inquiries fly in about her epic hair. "Have you got or are you planning any instructional YouTube videos?," one commenter asked. "Wow your hair so amazing what oils u use i want hair so thick and tall like you," chimed in another.

While Gubanova's lengthy style isn't obviously for everyone (long hair, don't care), we've got to admit her commitment to extreme growth is admirable. We just want to know: How much Biotin are you taking? We need a hint.
